It lays bare the climate injustice and polycrisis in the world, the resilience of the peoples and the intergenerational crimes committed by perpetrators. We are slipping beyond injury time, at the precipice. Read this book, share the message and join forces to chart the way to life and sanity”

About the Climate Justice Charter Movement:

The world’s first Climate Justice Charter emerged out of campaigning by the South African Food Sovereignty Campaign and Cooperative and Policy Alternative Centre during the recent drought (2014-2021) in South Africa. It was developed in dialogue with drought affected communities, labour unions, social justice and environmental justice organisations, faith-based communities, youth and children, climate scientists and climate justice activists. Moreover, it translated climate justice ideas, part of global struggles for the past two decades, for frontline struggles in the country.
